Turtle crossing signs missing on N. Idaho highway

BONNER COUNTY, Idaho -- Every time Cynthia Mason would drive along Highway 200 in Idaho, she would see turtles making their way across the road.

“They don’t make it across all the time,” Mason said.

Mason took matters into her own hands to try to protect these animals from the danger of crossing the road with cars passing by. After a few dozen emails, Mason convinced the Idaho Transportation Department to put up signs warning oncoming traffic about turtles crossing the highway.
